Cutteslowe and Sunnymead Park

Oxfordshire  >  United Kingdom

Nice local family friendly park. Not a commonly visited birding location, so lacks indepth records, but does have some nice birds if you're in the area.

Beschrijving

Cutteslowe and Sunnymead Park spans 42 hectares and consists of two sections: Cutteslowe Park to the north and Sunnymead Park to the south. The park has a central area with a cafe, mini golf and various family activities. The park has a nice community woodland and a section of fields that flood seasonally, along with agricultural land and a duck pond. IJsvogel can be seen on the river Cherwell, which is accessible at the park, while Rode Wouw and Sperwer are common across the area. The woodland hosts Boomklever and Houtsnip occasionally, while the farmland has Veldleeuwerik and can have Geelgors.

Extra info

Walking or cycling north out of the park and into farmland is picturesque and great for Veldleeuwerik, as well as providing a decent hill to watch for common raptors and access to the Cherwell where IJsvogel can be seen. The best place for Blauwe Reiger is Sunnymead park where they are present often.
